Digital Mirror: Invisible Labor
Prompt battle & symposium
Noorderlicht x RUG x The Hmm
During this Digital Mirror symposium, we will explore the human labor required to feed, train, and maintain AI systems.
We delve into the world of clickwork and digital microtasks: low-paid human work that is essential for AI to function, yet often remains invisible. Why does this work go unseen, and what does this reveal about the power dynamics upheld by technology? What can history teach us about the relationship between technology, labor, and power?
